I'm sick of using my "new" 84 Vanagon as a storage shed, so I'm trying to do
the last of the repairs now.  I've discovered that the driver's side head is
leaking coolant (to the point that I was away for 2 weeks and now she's out
of coolant).  According to the stains on the drive, it appears that the
coolant was also leaking out around the rad somewhere.  Anyway, I'm
wondering what to bring up when I call the local VW dealership and ask about
the repair.  The Vanagon might be an '84, but it only has 36000 km on it.  I
noticed that at bottom of Boston Bob's article on the web site that VW
prorates the repair based on mileage, but I'm guessing I'll probably have to
fight for it.  Does anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks again,
Karl.

Karl,

I sugest that you should phone these fellows.

A & H Muller in Calgary @ 1-403-250-9285.

They have the best prices that I have found in Canada and the US.
Dansk is the brand of exhaust that they carry for the Vanagon.
The fit and quality is far better than the S & S header, which I do not
recommend.
They have the also have all the exhaust parts for Syncros as well.
Most of all you don't have to buy expensive U.S. dollars!!
Also for U.S. people I am sure they will be very happy with the buying power
of there U.S.$
These guys also have some other neat parts such as the discontinued and had
to find Bosch winter wiper blades.
Along with lots of other parts you might need to keep your VW running
properly

Cheers
Glen
